But what can blind people do if they are allergic(过敏的) to dogs or just dont like them? For these people, they can turn to the Guide Horse Foundation.Janet and Don Burleson founded(成立) the organization in 1999. They began training miniature horses to help guide blind people. Miniature horses look just like common horses, only much smaller. They are generally less than 34 inches tall.Cuddles was the foundations first guide horse in full service. She became 45-year-old Dan Shaws helper. Shaw has an eye disease and his sight is very poor. One night, while filling out a form to get a guide dog, Shaw heard a news story on TV about people training horses to guide the blind. Shaw loves horses and wanted a guide animal that would live a long time. So he applied(申请)，and a year later, Cuddles and Shaw began training as a team.On a trip to New York, Cuddles helped Shaw safely visit many places of interest .They even traveled on a boat and on the subway system.Shaw says that he is very lucky to have Cuddles. He believes that Cuddles has changed his life for the better by giving him the chance to do things himself and making him feel much more confident about himself.21The Guide Horse Foundation_.A. was set up by one personB. has different kinds of horsesC. trains horses to guide blind peopleD. has a history of several hundred years22According to the text, miniature horses_.A. live a shorter life than guide dogs.B. are much smaller than common horses.C. are more friendly to people than dogs.D. are different from common horses in many ways.23 We know from the text that Dan Shaw_.A. became blind at age 45B. has a great love for horsesC. heard about guide horses from a friendD. got a guide horse as soon as he applied阅读理解阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。With only about 1, 000 pandas left in the world, China is desperately trying to clone(克隆) the animal and save the endangered species(物种). Thats a move similar to what a Texas A & M University researchers have been undertaking for the past five years in a project called “Noahs Ark”.Noahs Ark is aimed at collecting eggs, embryos(胚胎), semen and DNA of endangered animals and storing them in liquid nitrogen（氮）. If certain species should become extinct, Dr. Duane Kraemer, a professor in Texas A & Ms College of Veterinary Medicine, says there would be enough of the basic building blocks to reintroduce the species in the future.It is estimated that as many as 2,000 species of mammals, birds reptiles will become extinct in over 100 years. The panda, native only to China, is in danger of becoming extinct in the next 25 years.This week, Chinese scientists said they grew an embryo by introducing cells from a dead female panda into the egg cells of a Japanese white rabbit. They are now trying to implant the embryo into a host animal. The entire procedure could take from three to five years to complete.“The nuclear transfer(核子移植) of one species to another is not easy, and the lack of available(capable of being used) panda eggs could be a major problem,” Kraemer believes. “They will probably have to do several hundred transfers to result in one pregnancy (having a baby). It takes a long time and its difficult, but this could be groundbreaking science if it works. They are certainly not putting any live pandas at risk, so it is worth the effort,” adds Kraemer, who is one of the leaders of the Project at Texas A& M, the first-ever attempt at cloning a dog.“They are trying to do something thats never been done, and this is very similar to our work in Noahs Ark. Were both trying to save animals that face extinction. I certainly appreciate their effort and theres a lot we can learn from what they are attempting to do. Its a research that is very much needed. ”24The aim of “Noahs Ark” project is to _.A. make efforts to clone the endangered pandasB. save endangered animals from dying out C. collect DNA of endangered animals to studyD. transfer the nuclear of one animal to another25According to Professor Kraemer, the major problem in cloning pandas would be the lack of _.A. available panda eggs B. host animalsC. qualified researchers D. enough money26The best title for the passage may be _.A. Chinas Success in Pandas Cloning.B. The First Cloned Panda in the World. C. Exploring the Possibility to Clone Pandas.D. China the Native Place of Pandas Forever.27From the passage we know that _.A. Kraemer and his team have succeeded in cloning a dog.B. scientists try to implant a pandas egg into a rabbit.C. Kraemer will work with Chinese scientists in clone researches.D. about two thousand of species will probably die out in a century.Joseph Francis Charles Rock (18841962) was an Austrian-American explorer, botanist, and anthropologist(人类学家). For more than 25 years, he travelled extensively through Tibet and Yunnan, Gansu, and Sichuan provinces in China before finally leaving in 1949.In 1924, Harvard sent Joseph Francis Rock on a treasure hunt through Chinas southwestern provincesthe Wild West of their day. But gold and silver werent his task: Rock, a distinguished botanist, sought only to fill his bags with all the seeds, saplings, and shrubs he could find. During his three-year expedition, he collected 20,000 specimens for the Arnold Arboretum(阿诺德植物园).Botany, though, was just one of Rocks strengths. As an ethnologist(民族学者), he took hundreds of photographs of the Naxi, a tribe in Yunnan province, recording their now-lost way of life for both Harvard and National Geographic, and took notes for an eventual 500-page dictionary of their language. His hand-drawn map of his travels through Chinas “Cho-Ni” territory, in the Harvard Map Collection, includes more than a thousand rivers, towns, and mountains indicated in both English and Chinese, and was so well made that the U.S. government used it to plan aerial missions in World War II.Scientist, linguist, cartographer, photographer, writerRock was not a wallflower in any sense. Arrogant and self-possessed, he would walk into a village or warlords place “as if he owned the place,” said Lisa Pearson, the Arboretums head librarian.In declaring his successful return under the headline “Seeking Strange Flowers, in the Far Reaches of the World,” the Boston Evening Transcript ran a large photo of the daring explorer wearing in a woolly coat and fox-skin hat. “In discussing his heroism including hair-raising escapes from death either from mountain slides, snow slides and robber armies, he waves the idea away as if it is of no importance.”The Arboretum and Rock parted ways after 1927, mainly because his trip cost Harvard a fortuneabout $900,000 in todays dollars. Fortunately, many of his specimens, many of his amazing photos, and his great stories remain.28What is the passage mainly about?A. Rocks service for the U.S government.B. Rocks cooperation with Harvard.C. Rocks work as a botanist.D. Rocks exploration in Southwest China.29What contribution did Rock make to the USA besides collecting new plants and specimens?A. He traveled through some uncivilized places in China.B. His hand-drawn map was used in World War II.C. He showed heroism by escaping difficulties.D. He made headlines in Boston Evening News.30How did Rock respond when people mentioned his heroic deeds?A. Excitedly.B. Proudly.C. Calmly.D. Nervously.31What caused Rock to stop work for The Arboretum?A. The vast expense.B. The dangerous journey.C. The challenging tasks.D. The unknown world.The universe looks like a pretty quiet place to live. But the universe is filled with dangerous things, all struggling to be the one to wipe us off the planet. Happily for us, theyre all pretty unlikely, but if you wait long enough, one of them is certain to get us. But which one?1. Death by Asteroid (小行星)Of all the ways we might meet our untimely death, getting wiped out by an asteroid is the most likely. Why? Because we sit in a universal shooting gallery, with 100 tons of material hitting us every day. The problem, though, occurs every few centuries when something big this way comes. If you could ask a dinosaur, Id imagine they would tell you to take this seriously.2. Death by Exploding StarWhen a huge star ends its life, it does so with a bang, which sends death spreading across space in the form of high-energy radiation. Many studies show that the bang would have to be closer than about 75 light years to do us any harm. The good news: no stars so close are able to do the deed.3. Death by Dying SunThe sun is important to us; without it, wed freeze. But the sun is also middle-aged, already halfway to running out of fuel, expanding into a red giant, and cooking us to a fine crisp. Even long before then, itll warm up enough to raise our average temperature and cause a runaway greenhouse effect, boiling our oceans.Happily, thats a long time from now.4. Death by Black HoleBlack holes are misunderstood. They dont wander the galaxy looking for tasty snacks in the form of planets and stars; they turn around the Milky Way just like the hundreds of billions of other stars do. But its possible that one could wander too close to us. If it did, planetary paths would be disturbed, causing the Earth to drop into the sun or be thrown out into deep space.Given that it could be trillions of years or more before even that happens, we dont have to worry too much about black holes.My advice? Go outside, look up, enjoy the sun, the moon, and the stars. They may be there forever as far as any one of us is concerned.and forever is a long, long time.32The underlined word “this” probably refers to _.A. getting wiped out by a dinosaurB. an untimely deathC. a cosmic shooting galleryD. 100 tons of material33Which of the following will cause the earths average temperature to go up dramatically?A. The dying sun.B. The black hole.C. The asteroid.D. The exploding star.34Which of the following statement is possible about black holes?A. They wander the galaxy.B. One of them wanders very close to the earth.C. They turn around the galaxy.D. They look for planets and stars.35While the author is introducing the ways the universe could wipe out humankind, he is _ us.A. warningB. comfortingC. entertainingD. ignoring第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。The guy who tried to edit EnglishThe English vocabulary is not only huge, it is also full of words that mean practically the same thing. Get, obtain, acquire. Shine, gleam, glow, sparkle. 36 That was the thinking of a British writer named C.K. Ogden, who in the 1930s promoted a new form of English with a vocabulary of just 850 words. He called the project Basic English. 37 Ogden arrived at his 850-word list through experimentation. The words he finally included were not necessarily the shortest or most concrete. 38 Because any verbal (动词的) idea could be expressed with a small number of “operators” words like come, go, take, have, make, be and do Ogden argued that most verbs were unnecessary. In Basic English, eat is “have a meal” and forget is “go from memory.”Winston Churchill was a fan of the concept as a way to get foreigners to speak English, and he encouraged the BBC to use it. 39 Roosevelt, who expressed mild interest, joked that Churchills famous speech about offering his “blood, toil, tears and sweat” to his country wouldnt have been so exciting if he “had been able to offer the British people only blood, work, eye water and face water, which I understand is the best that Basic English can do with five famous words.” 40 Churchill didnt use it either. When seeking to express ourselves, we dont necessarily need fewer words; we need the right words. So its our benefit to have a large supply of words on hand. A. Do we really need them all?B. How many words are there in English?C. Ogden himself didnt actually use Basic English.D. Plenty of seeming basic words did not make the list at all.E. He also tried to persuade President Franklin Roosevelt to promote it.F. He believed it would make the language more efficient and easier to learn.G. Despite attention from world leaders, Basic English never got as far as expected.第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。Vision is the art of seeing what is invisible to others. - Jonathan SwiftI walked into a wild third-grade classroom.
